In a previous blog we discussed the role of the NVIC in ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers. This peripheral will play a central role in booting our target application. First of all, we need to discuss the boot process in an ARM Cortex-M microcontroller. Boot process After Power On Reset the microcontroller assumes the NVIC table is located at address 0x00000000. The processor fetches the first two words in the NVIC table, corresponding to the top of the stack and the reset vector.
